What minus 3/8 equals 7/6?


Here we will show you how to calculate "what" in this sentence: "What minus 3/8 equals 7/6?" We start by making this word problem into an algebraic equation where "what" is the variable "x".

x - 3/8 = 7/6

To solve this equation, we want x alone on the left side of the equation so we start by adding 3/8 on both sides like this:

x - 3/8 + 3/8 = 7/6 + 3/8

x - 3/8 + 3/8 leaves x and 7/6 + 3/8 is 1 13/24 which means we end up with x = 1 13/24. Therefore, the answer to "What minus 3/8 equals 7/6?" is as follows:

1 13/24


It is always good to double-check your math to make sure you did it right. When we entered 1 13/24 for x in this equation x - 3/8 = 7/6, we get the following true equation which means our math is correct.

1 13/24 - 3/8 = 7/6
